Lake McClure Fish Report

Lake McClure - Coulterville, CA (Mariposa County)

A sizzling hot bite for kings and kokanee  Early morning is a good time to look for kings in 60 to 80 feet depths, before they move down in the hundred foot range by mid morning.  We used Pro Cure injected shad and small spoons as to match the new shad hatch.  Look for the the 2 1/2 to 4 pound salmon roaming off rocky points early, then moving out in the river channels between Barretts Cove and the dam.  The kokanee can be found in the same areas as the kings down 50 to 60 feet deep.  Uncle Larry's orange spinner behind Vance's watermelon dodgers and Pro Cures soaked corn is a deadly combination.  The 14- to 16-1/2-inch kokes are very scattered holding in small schools.  Don't expect to hammer your limit in a couple of hours.  Although, we were not especially targeting trout we landed some beautiful rainbows 16 to 18 inches with the same offering as the kings and kokanee.  Lake surface temperature is 80.4 degrees.  Bruce Hamby (209) 599-2023
